The Pundit recently fielded questions from international investers who were part of a conference call hosted by Citi European Food Retail Team.

Here is the invitation that went out:

The Citi European Food Retail Team invites you to participate in a conference call to discuss the progress of Tesco’s new US grocery chain, Fresh & Easy.

Our special guest will be Jim Prevor — otherwise known as the ‘Perishable Pundit’ — who will be taking us through his impressions of Fresh & Easy as a consumer and as an industry insider. He has some firm views on what is working well and what does not seem to be working so far… There will be an opportunity for Q&A.

For those of you not acquainted with Jim — recently described by the Sunday Telegraph as “one of America’s most influential commentators on the grocery market” — you should check out his website at http://www.perishablepundit.com/.
